And he said, Who art thou? And she answered, I am Ruth thine handmaid: spread therefore thy skirt over thine handmaid; for thou art a near kinsman.
Y él dijo: '¿Quién eres tú?' Y ella respondió: 'Soy Rut, tu sierva. Por favor extiende tu manto sobre mí, porque tú eres un pariente cercano que puede redimirme.'
Rut se identifica ante Booz y le pide que la tome bajo su protección como pariente redentor.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In ancient Israel, when a man died without children, his closest male relative (called a 'kinsman-redeemer') had the responsibility to marry the widow to continue the family line and protect her financially. Ruth's request for Boaz to 'spread his skirt' over her was a symbolic way of asking him to marry her and fulfill this duty. This conversation takes place at night on the threshing floor where Boaz was sleeping to guard his grain harvest.
